Sup. I mainly pve'd on this toon when cata launched as blood, then tried a little pvp as frost before shelving him for my priest/rogue/warrior a few months back.
i lvld to 85 blood and never even had an UH spec till today. Im likeing the control of uh with focus silence/pet stun and want to pickup this character again, but im kind of lost on the ramp up to dark transform/erw burst.
im specd into RoR cuz i remember seeing something from Reinhart awhile ago saying this was the best dps choice for pvp. so im building rp with plauge/IT/dnd, etc but it seems like it takes entirely too long to setup a kill.
im figuring wait for transform @ full rp with runes up, DT, necro x2, gargoyle, erw, necro x2, dc to dump rp
idk...i feel like im doing it terribly wrong.
renamed cuz no replys.
Negative, mi amigo. You don't want to build RP with Plague Strike or Icy Touch, in fact you shouldn't really bother to use Icy Touch in PvP at all, since Chains of Ice applies Frost Fever. Use CoI and Plague Strike to apply diseases, that's it. Use Death Coil as soon as you have the RP in order to proc Runic Corruption -> get runes faster = get RP faster. If diseases are already up, try to use your Blood & Frost runes on Festering Strike to proc Reaping. Once you've lined up some Death runes and your two UH runes, you can stack Necrotic Strike. Once you've used 5 DCs, Dark Transformation will pop. Continue stacking Necrotics, pop your Gargoyle, Mind Freeze a heal, Strangulate your target, use your ghoul-stun on them, stack some more Necrotics, wave goodbye.
The RoR build works just fine, all it means is you will use Scourge Strike more often for the up-front damage when a) the enemy healer is incapacitated or b) there is no healer.
Unholy's damage has a big ramp-up time, you don't burst the way Frost does. You do, however, have the ability to put out sustained, consistent damage/pressure that builds over time, and you "burst" when you pop DT and your Gargoyle.
Gotcha...it was kind of an awakening coming off frosts faceroll rotation and the on-demand type of burst im used to with rogue/priest/warrior.
do i glyph ss? How is my uh spec/glyph setup?
It was an awakening.. O:? Lol.
I played as Unholy for months before switching back to Frost. You may feel pretty
cool for having a slightly harder "rotation" and doing the same dps, I guess
that's up to you.
